Rich nose of blackberry and bramble, a deep red-purple color, with palate showing intense, yet somewhat refined flavors black and blue fruits, a touch jammy, but with soft tannins and a backbone of acidity which tended to balance nicely. Finish was medium-long, and very pleasant.

Enjoyable and still bright. Lots of ripe cherry. Didn't decant, however took about an hour to open nicely.

Rich, ripe fruit with a moderate touch of acidity and mild tannins. Very enjoyable just by itself.

ZAP 2011 20th Annual Grand Tasting; 1/29/2011-1/31/2011 (San Francisco, Fort Mason): Balanced fruit. A little more brambly than the others at ZAP but nice. This and the mind artist were my favorites at this table today.
